How long does it take to get an Australian citizenship?

At least 4 years from the time you move to Australia, and at least 1 year from the time you get a Permanent Residency (PR). This is the current requirement for the citizenship. Of course, based on individual circumstances, you may or may not get it even after the minimum stay qualifications. And you need to go through a citizenship test.The current government is hellbent on making it difficult though, and intends to change these rules. They tried last year but didn't get enough support in the parliament to do it. If they get the required votes, there would be changes, the most notable being the need to spend 4 years in Australia after getting a PR.The above is the time you need in Australia to qualify. How long after you apply… I would say assume 6 months at least for the whole process, this again could change depending on individual circumstances.There are a number of other requirements like English language proficiency etc. But since the question was focused on how long, I have covered the time factor in this response.
